Cushion starfish, also known as Cnidarians, face predation from various marine species. Key predators include sea turtles, particularly the leatherback turtle, and certain fish like the sunfish (Mola mola). Additionally, some species of crabs and sea stars may also prey on them. Their ability to regenerate can help them survive predation attempts, but they remain vulnerable to these natural threats.
The weight of a cushion starfish will vary depending on its stage in life. A young cushion starfish weighs about 1 gram while an adult would weigh about 23 grams.
The scientific name of a cushion starfish is Culcita novaeguineae.
